What I love the most is Beth finally opening to everyone
— Abigail Books Addiction

I was incredibly excited to read Lauren Connolly's upcoming release, Love in Plane Sight. Having absolutely loved her latest release, P.S. I Hate You, I had very high expectations for this one, and it truly exceeded them. I devoured it in one day and didn't pause at all once I started. I even reread it because I enjoyed it so much!

Before going any further, I want to let you know that this book does contain heavy topics, so please check out the trigger warnings before reading.

I particularly appreciate that Lauren does not sugarcoat any of the difficult subjects discussed; she handles them perfectly, which helps us connect deeply with the story and the characters. Beth Lundberg, though a tad cynical and sassy, consistently works her best for the people she loves, despite the complicated presence (or lack thereof) of her father in her life.

It's truly fortunate that she has her older brother, who deeply cares for her and consistently encourages her to pursue her dreams of becoming a pilot. However, it's heartbreaking to realize that Beth is also deeply in debt, a fact unknown to others. I empathize with her greatly, especially considering she's striving to be everything for her mother, who is finally in remission. The medical costs, as we know, were significantly higher than anyone anticipated. I truly understand and feel for Beth's struggles throughout the novel.

What I love the most is Beth finally opening to everyone. It doesn't happen all at once. Just slowly, starting off with her nemesis, aka her brother's best friend, aka potential love interest, George. They may have started off on the wrong foot, but Beth and George definitely have crazy chemistry with each other. You could tell that the tension between Beth and George was going to explode one way or another. I was just waiting for it. And it didn't disappoint at all. Just love Beth and George's chemistry. The chemistry between Beth and George is truly captivating.
